The Crown Princess was visiting on behalf of The Mary Foundation, to launch a new project aimed on developing students' social capabilities. The project is due to be expanded across other schools throughout Denmark.

Later that evening, Mary attended the Magasin Du Nord Foundation Fashion Prize, regarded as the most important award of its kind in Denmark.

The award was presented to Veronica D'Souza and her brand Carcel, which has a strong focus on sustainability, of which Crown Princess Mary has long been in support of.

Speaking to IN Magazine in June Princess Mary said: "I have great confidence that man has what it takes for personal raw power, curiosity and visions, finding new solutions, new products and innovative approaches.

"Together with the generations to inherit the earth after us, we must decide how to create a sustainable future for the planet and the people living on it."
